we couldn’t have asked for a better day

My husband and I got married at Dunblane hydro on 04.05.2024 and we couldn’t have asked for a better day. The first time we saw the hydro we knew straight away that was the place we wanted to get married. Our day couldn’t have been possible without the Hydros wedding coordinator, Morag, who made the entire process so easy for us and was always in contact with us through email and quick to answer any and all of our many questions, even meeting with us in person when we got a bit stressed with the impending day. The day itself went so well without any hiccups, at least none that we were aware of! We had Roisin with us throughout the day who was amazing, she made sure the day went smooth and that we didn’t need anything, plus had a plate of canapés left aside for us to make sure we got some after our photos (which with the hydros grounds, are stunning).
The rest of the evening was phenomenal with all our guests commenting on how amazing it was and how stunning the venue was too. We very much look forward to going back to Dunblane Hydro in the future.

Dunblane Hydro did not disappoint!

We had our special day at Dunblane Hydro in April 2023, this venue was very special to myself and my husband and they did not disappoint.
The attention to detail and support we had from the staff from day 1 was fantastic. We definitely picked the best venue for our special day. The food at the wedding was outstanding and many of our guests commented on this and said it was one of the best meals they had at a wedding. We would highly recommend this venue for your wedding if you are looking for a truly beautiful place to get married. The grounds in particular make a stunning place for your wedding photographs. We would like to thank all the staff for making our day one to remember.

Excellent!

We cannot thank Morag, Roisin and all the staff at Dunblane Hydro enough for their help and hard work in pulling everything together for our wedding day. We had our special day on 22 June and everything was perfect from start to finish. No stresses at all! All of our guests commented on the food - it was excellent! They also thought the hotel was beautiful - we have to agree. We are so pleased! Mr & Mrs Buchanan’

Thank you so much for organising our wedding!

We had our wedding at the Dunblane Hydro in April 2023 and could not have been happier with how our day went. All of the staff were so friendly and attentive right from our first visit through to our big day. Morag catered to our every need on the lead up to our wedding and on the day Roisin made sure everything went without a hitch. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue and anyone considering Dunblane Hydro for their wedding will have the time of their lives.
